Researchers from the University of Washington have taken advantage of synthetic biology to turn yeast cells into building blocks for digital information processing. The experiment, described today in ...

You’ve heard of qubits, now get ready for p-bits! These units form the building blocks of probabilistic computers that can solve certain problems more efficiently than traditional computers. A team of ...

This series of articles reviews basic concepts, and is intended for hardware and software engineers working with embedded systems. In previous sessions we covered some of the fundamental electronic ...

The field of electronics, sensors and digital hardware underpins modern technological progress by integrating miniaturised processing units, advanced sensor systems and robust digital circuitry to ...

At $1,999, the Technics HA-507 is a pure analog headphone amplifier and preamplifier with a balanced/dual mono configuration. Although TEAC’s Reference 500 series includes UD models that combine both ...

Experimental work and theoretical models deduce a "digital" response of the p53 transcription factor when genomic integrity is damaged. The mutual influence of p53 and its antagonist, the Mdm2 ...

For 30 years, electronics engineers have come to expect that the main path to "smaller, faster, and cheaper" products is semiconductor integration. Also, greater ...

Digital power is quite the buzz these days. Let's take a moment to examine the term. The simplest definition of “digital power” is the control of a switching regulator via a digital interface. This ...

The relentless drive for higher performance and increased functional integration has ushered in new challenges for managing electromagnetic interference (EMI) in densely packed mixed-signal ...

In a world that favors digital circuitry, analog has increasingly had to cope with processes that have become less favorable to them. But that may be changing We live in an analog world, and yet ...

Analog vs. Digital: What’s the Difference? Air temperature, sound loudness,light intensity—in nature, all of these quantities vary smoothly and continuously over a range. Such quantities is called ...
